COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONWhen it’s quitting time around the brewery the team can often be caught snagging a pint of this British style malt forward IPA. We call it Fog-O’clock and it’s becoming a bit of a Yukon trend! Unlike the hundreds of other IPA’s out there, we’re not going for the “hip and hop” award with this brew, going over the top with bitterness. It’s a session beer for folks who appreciate an IPA with balance.

I would describe this as a gateway IPA. Pours hazy orange with a white head which fully diminishes. An inviting aroma with a low intensity, smelling classic IPA. Bread, floral, citrus, grass. Low intensity for an IPA, low body, with a medium aftertaste. thin creamy texture, with bitter, fruity flavors. balanced, complex quality. In between a classic IPA and a commercial IPA. Appreciated.

courtesy of fiulijn - hazy dark blond-orange beer with a moderate head retention; some fruity hoppiness (apricot dominates with hints of quince); medium-bodied and with a moderate bitterness; quite dry and with long flowery and fruity hoppy tones - easy

341ml bottle pours a golden color with 2 fingers of white head that settles down leaving some thin lacing on the side of the glass. Aroma is light cereal grains and pleasing floral hops. Taste is well balanced between the malty sweetness and hop bitterness. This is not a hop bomb, but an easy drinking IPA that will satisfy most but the true hop-heads.
